I didn't stay at the hotel but went to the restaurant because it was recommended by my hotel's staff. I wanted to post a review of the restaurant, and found this to be the only place I could write about it. Go to this restaurant! The food is exceptional, the staff is super attentive and the atmosphere is perfect. I believe the Michelin mention was very well deserved - very interesting ingredients combined in surprising ways. I enjoyed the scallop appetizer and the dorado fish entree was delicious. I also had two of the desserts and enjoyed each - the staff says all of their desserts are excellent, and I will likely agree. Would like to go back as soon as I can.

We stayed 1 night at Casa das Senhoras Rainhas. The hotel is very quaint and beautiful right inside the walls of the walled city of Obidos. The courtyard outside the room is beautiful, where you can enjoy the quiet, the flowers and the glass of port they leave for you. The hotel staff was extremely friendly. The breakfast was huge and delicious. The only problem with the hotel is finding it. We had a GPS, but that didn't really help. We finally resorted to calling the hotel and they talked us thru how to find the hotel over the phone while we drove through the tiny streets of the city (not for the faint of heart). We loved Obidos and couldn't have imagined a more perfect place to stay. Really first class - can't imagine how a 5 star hotel (this is 4) would be any nicer.

Obidos is a charming village to spend a couple of nights. We really liked Casa Das Senhoras from the first moment we arrived.... after a long flight from Canada we were welcomed with a refreshing welcome drink on our balcony!

Rooms were very clean with modern washrooms. We could not get the wireless internet from our room (as walls are so thick) - but we could from the sitting room next to the lobby and/or on the outside terrace. We had dinner at the restaurant the first evening and the food was very good! and breakfast the next morning was great also with eggs cooked how you like them! Also, complimentary port was in your room to enjoy after a long day of sightseeing - it was maybe not the greatest port but I think still a nice gesture and a great way to end the day!

The 2nd night we had dinner at the castle restaurant... I am not 100% but I think if you are not staying at the castle you do not get the premium tables with the views... I guess I can kind of understand that... food was good though. It is nice to stay in the village as you can walk the streets at night without the crowds.

If you are driving it is tricky finding out to get into the walled village... we stopped at the tourist info building to get directions and we still got lost... tight turns so hopefully you have a small car... plus parking is very scarce by the hotel.

We stayed here on one of our last nights in Portugal, after having wonderful experiences in Lisbon, Palmela, Evora, Marvao, Aveiro and the Duoro River valley region. I guess if you hadn't seen a walled city before, Obidos might be worth a visit but not an overnight stay. It takes about an hour to experience the very touristy attractions, and as everyone has mentioned, it's very difficult to find the hotel let alone drive to it. We arrived during a Christmas festival and were told we couldn't drive in, so we lugged our luggage over the cobblestones, noting that our hotel was not even listed on the central sign. We finally asked a cabbie, who drew us a map. But even then, the only sign on the hotel is a painted one on a wall. If you miss that, you miss the hotel. Our room was on the ground floor, small but with a patio. Breakfast was good; we were the only people staying at the hotel. We skipped dinner. As I said, this was the only hotel we regretted booking on our whole two week trip.
